Created by Franco Dragone, the world’s most revered performance artistic directors specially for Dubai, La Perle is the region’s first permanent show, located at Al Habtoor City. Unveiled to the public in September 2017, La Perle took the world by a storm.

Here are 4 reasons why you simply must see the show on your next visit to Dubai.

Choreography

The electric show takes place across several time periods and locations, blending different universes in a breathtaking fusion portrayed through dramatic music, colourful costumes, and advanced visual effects. The 90 minute high octane show features jaw dropping acts as acrobats fly across the stage, dive from 25 metres in the air into an aqua stage, and defy gravity all in 90 minutes with no intermission.

Advanced stagecraft

The 1,300 seat amphitheater is centered around an aqua stage which holds an impressive 2.7 million litres of recycled water used throughout the show. Boasting an impressive draining system, the stage takes exactly 90 seconds to go from wet to dry, while the cutting edge technology and surrounding sound system brings the story to life.

Acrobats

The talented troupe is composed of 65 of the world’s greatest artists from 23 countries showcasing their superhuman talents across acrobatics, dance, strength, balance, and coordination. Expect to see artists flying across the stage at the speed of 15 km/h and up to 4 motorcycles spinning at the same time in a metal wheel, while suspended in the air.

Experience

The cosy theatre is set up in only 14 rows, which means the audience will have an up close experience of the show, no matter where they sit. This means you will hear, see, and feel a lot of the show elements from the cool breeze of the waterfalls, to acrobats hanging above your head, leaving you completely speechless. Ifyou arrive pre-show, Al Habtoor City offers several dining options to enjoy as well as cinema-style snacks, if you are not up for a full meal.

In short, this show will not only captivate you, it will blow your mind. It is an absolute must see for both visitors and residents.
